Template:PromotedUnit The Siege Archer is a promotion of the Archer. Like the Archer, her passive is Puncture.
|
Ability: Slag and Burn
The Siege Archer throws a 5-tile area of slag onto the ground which explodes immediately, doing 1 strength damage, plus armor damage to the unit at the center. It also leaves randomly placed burning coals on unoccupied tiles. If targeting an empty tile, coals always appear on the center tile first. Enemies who walk over the burning coals take 1 strength damage.
Rank 1: 1 armor damage, 1 strength damage + up to 2 coals
Rank 2: 2 armor damage, 1 strength damage + up to 3 coals
Rank 3: 3 armor damage, 1 strength damage + up to 4 coals

Passive: Puncture
By standing still, the archer is able to line up a shot that takes advantage of an enemies missing armor, doing bonus damage.
For every 2 points of armor her target has lost, the Archer gains 1 additional strength to her attack, as long as she didn't move beforehand. This makes her especially deadly near the end of a fight, or against tough opponents who have lost a lot of armor.
Lore
| In the first great war when men fought Varl, one of the few things that would keep the giants at bay was to light one's own town on fire in retreat. One brave woman could not bear to rebuid her home for a third time. As Varl advanced yet again, she hoisted a bag of pitch upon her hip and shouted "Fools! It's not our houses they fear!" With fire wrapped around her arrows, she sent the entire front line ablaze and running. |
